[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 287635, member: 1550"] Thanks, Marg. I'm sure L. will always need a little bit of help, and that's ok. It was just so shocking to see him being fully autistic because to us he doesn't seem that way at all and in school he is very comfortable. I think the key for L. will be to get him a job where he gets to know people and is comfortable and "watched." These kids are smart (my son is #11 in grades out of 130 kids), but he can't perform up to his IQ due to his other deficits. You are so right that being with somebody is different for L!!! He likes to be with us, even when he doesn't interact...lol. He is so solitary that the thought of a girlfriend or marriage is very much NOT in his plans. He wants a BIG dog...lol. And that's fine! You sure have Aspies nailed! [/QUOTE]
